Video @KingFisherman - During the flower festival

[brotrips]

(Noctis isn't sure when it happened, only that the flower in his hand was a trigger. One moment, he was himself, a normally-sized adult with an adult mind and features. The next, he was much smaller and the world around him much larger. Gone is the bravery and selective confidence, only to be replaced by the child that was even more painfully shy than his older self.

When the camera clicks on, Noctis is in his bed, smell legs crossed with a pillow in his lap; it hides most of his face.)

I... need help.

There's a number two...so it's the second floor.

(Oh, he's excited now. He'll get to see the wolf sooner than he'd dare hope!)

Hold on! [There is some rustling as Freya slips her phone into her pocket, not bothering to turn it off and goes running now the stairs. There is an elevator but this seems faster. When she arrives she skids to a halt with a smile.] I found you! Oh, right. I need to change. Will you look after my clothes for me? [They do not change with her.]

(The boy that greets her is a bit more shy in person. His body seems to shrink, though it's not out of fear so much as nervousness; he's not good with strangers. But Freya promises excitement, and Noctis can only be so shy around the possibility of shapeshifting.)

Yeah... I'll guard them!

[Freya's grin widens as she kicks off her pants and pulls her shirt over her head. She's young enough that she doesn't think it's weird to walk around mostly naked. It also doesn't last for more than a second. Her skin shimmers and stretches as she falls onto all fours. It takes only a blink for the change to take place and while her shape has completely changed, it looks natural. Standing in front of Noctis is a pure white fluffy wolf. Freya half barks and half grows at him before running over and slamming her side against his leg. She's going to be the best guard wolf EVER!]

(His age and innocent mind are the same, and he watches in excitement that stems entirely from the promise of a wolf.

It's amazing. Noctis drops to his feet and pulls her into a hug, laughing as he nuzzles her head.)

You're so cute! You're the cutest dog ever!

[Freya wiggles in his arms so that she can twist her head and lick his cheek. Her tongue is scratchy but warm, covering his face with dog slobber. She isn't a dog, she's a wolf but semantics. Her tail wages happily back and forth as he nuzzles her head. Freya loves snuggles but she's also promised to protect Noctis so she's on the look out for danger like a good watch pup.]
